 Great Book June 24, 2008
I love this book.
I know that some people have stated that this book is just like the manual that comes with the Bowflex. That is only true if you just skim this book.
This book gives better pictures of the 23 exercises that he recommends. The exercises are for the Bowflex Ultimate. However, you can use these on the Power Pro with the right attachments.
He provides multiple routines plus an awesome chapter on breakdowns, double pre-exhaustion, and negatives. When you really look at this chapter you realize that there are more than 23 exercises because of the way you perform these routines.
The only negative about this book is the extra fluff. I believe it is there in order to convert you to the HIT philosophy. Since HIT goes against the grain of what most people have been told about weight lifting I get the feeling DR. Darden feels that he needs to convince you with all the extra pages that it works.
Once you are sold on HIT those extra pages just get in the way of the meat of this book.
If you follow the leanness program in the Bowflex manual to the letter and you have no intentions to work on sculpting your body then this book is probably not for you.
However, if you want to sculpt your body, work on strength training, and target your problem areas (arms,chest,abs) then this book is a must.
 Severely Outdated May 7, 2008

This book contains much useful information but is severely outdated. Bowflex no longer makes the equipment featured in this book. If you have the manuals and DVD that came with your Bowflex, you probably don't need this book.
Almost like the user manual February 23, 2008

This pretty much has what is in the user manual you get with the machine. There are a few other exercises in it and more backgroung info. It's good to get if you've lost your manual or if you want a sturdier, hardback copy.
Very Motivating and Easy Read February 18, 2008

I am almost finished with this book and I must say that I expected to drift away page after page. I was suprised that it kept me motivated and it makes me a believer that it really is not that difficult to get the results I want if I stick to a very simple routine!
Thanks Bowflex Body Plan February 9, 2008

We bought a Bowflex used and didn't know where to start. This book gave us a plan to use. Starts off with only a few exercises to master the form and get used to. Then after two weeks adds two more, etc. etc. Gives different routines for people in good shape looking to work on certain areas. It also offers dieting advice!!! Before and after stories with pictures!!! Nice book!!!
